Before we get going with the main event I must disclose this post started out with me just updating a few items, links, and sources, and well, here we stand with an entirely new post.  I hope you enjoy!

Streaming smooth jazz smooth wave complete with the sounds of summer tunes and sea waves on a Saturday afternoon sets the tones and tunes to a coastal pictorial.
 
Even though at present it’s just too hot to do anything remotely close to a real day at the coast, the sights and sounds do put me in a sourcing coastal home décor accents and accessories state of mind.

Coastal home décor accents and accessories in earth tones of neutral, blue, green, gold, pink, brown and greige borrow from sea and sky.

Color and light have quite the influence on each other.

Photographers definitely can attest to it, and I know several decoristas who will testify to it as well.

Nature’s light show of morning, noon, and night has a way of adjusting colors to deepen and/or soften.
